Yes, indeed. I have a suspicion that the author doesn't know exactly what he is writing about. If you want to render under Windows, you need to call windows code at the end, don't you?...You can directly call Win32 API, or go through .NET, or use MFC or WTL wrappers. In my opinion WTL was one of the best choices, because the library has good design (derived from C++'s STL) and leads to very efficient code.
